3 standout players from Arsenal’s 3-2 win over Man Utd

3. Oleksandr Zinchenko

Another week, another time to praise Zinchenko. Especially in the second half, the Ukrainian was crucial in so much of the success Arsenal had. He roamed around the left side of the pitch with a sense of coolness that we have seen so often.

When it mattered the most, his cutback to captain Martin Odegaard gave the Norwegian the opportunity to strike – despite it being flicked in by Nketiah instead. But even on other occasions, his shot could have been turned in by Nketiah in the first half had it been just a tiny bit slower.

The four-time Premier League winner has given Arsenal the experience that was needed to mount this title charge. It is clear that he is a figure off of the pitch too. He is a signing that ticks all of Mikel Arteta’s boxes – thank you Pep.
